Insurance Card Scan

Overview
Add an Insurance Card scan to your workflow through the Passbase dashboard to either verify patients or to use as a secondary piece of ID for identity verification.
An Insurance Card is one of the Additional Checks that you can use in a Customer Identification Program (CIP) or to know your customer (KYC). It may also be required for health insurance coverage. In order to help companies cater to customers globally, Passbase collects the origin country and nationality of the Insurance Card as well.
If you are a business operating in the US, you can also select the Insurance Card (US) option instead.
Enable Insurance Card Scan
Within the customization additional checks page, you can enable the Insurance Card Scan  by dragging the Insurance Card Scan check to the Live Version section. Click the Publish Changes button when complete. Your users will now be prompted to scan the front and back of their Insurance Card as the final step of the verification flow.
